And again. The mmag was never meant as a book. Someone would have to rewrite some if not all of the mags to update them to the present day. I'm happy to check every website from 1990 or whatever when the mag came out and every email address to see if its valid as long as someone can send the load to me. However I would know next to nothing about extraction of the info or writing the thing. Its still a major job. I suppose if you had a contents page with all the issues as chapters and then just lump it that way. It would work, however most of the stuff is invalid. Right now it doesn't stuffing matter. however if we are going to make a stuffing book out of it then then for frag sake it better be right otherwise what is the stuffing point. I just feel that if we are really going to do this then we need to do it properly. And this imediately ilimonates all the game developers. They have enough of a time developing the games for us and then we have the users. Now we for the case of actually needing people to write things may have to cut out people that have not good english, not to saying that all people that have english as a second language should be cut out but those that are not good writers or whtever in english if englishes is a second language will have to be concidered. This does not apply to people that are dumb spellers like myself. Right so we have to cut out well a few I should imagine. Now that we have done that. has anyone got a number if we say for acodemic reasons cut out out all developers and every address that doesn't origionate in the us, uk or other english speaking country, or whatever. How many do we have left. Come to think of it how many members do we have, out of all those after we cut out everything we need to, we then have the hard issue about how many post, and how often. And do we cut out those that don't post and just listen or what. And then well we may just end up with a rather ibismal number of users. Then we actually need time to do this. I have time to kill. So we cut all the people without jobs then everything that has some job has to go etc.
What the jist of it is that we need to research the how we will pull it off. Weather we just write the entire thing from scratch or just cobble it from existing code means we still need to know how we will actually get it done.
